Agriculture, forestry, and fishing value added as % of GDP NV.AGR.TOTL.ZS
Cambodia's agriculture value added was 16.60% in 2025, ranked 45th globally. This represents a 0.2% increase from 2024. Data from World Bank, covering 1993–2025.
Overview
Cambodia's agriculture value added stood at 16.60% in 2025, a rise of +0.03% from 2024. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 16.60% by 2025. Cambodia ranked 45th globally.
Cambodia’s agriculture value added has fallen sharply from an all‑time peak of 47.72 in 1995 to a trough of 15.44 in 2019, before rising modestly to 16.60 in 2025, placing the country 45th in the world. The 33‑year series shows a long‑term decline of more than two‑thirds, reflecting structural shifts toward services and manufacturing, as well as recurring climate shocks that have constrained farm productivity. By contrast, peer economies such as Lao PDR (16.32) and Papua New Guinea (16.97) are hovering at similar levels, suggesting that Cambodia’s recent rebound is part of a broader regional pattern of modest recovery after the 2010s downturn. Continued investment in irrigation, climate‑resilient crops and market access will be crucial if Cambodia is to reverse the downward trajectory and sustain growth in agricultural value added.
